Friday, 23 July, 1948

Kashmir Hamara Hay was the first ever released film on any Pakistani cinema.

It is also claimed that famous film actor Naeem Hashmi made the first documentary film as Inqalab-e-Kashmir in 1948, which was only screened for a single show on Ritz cinema Lahore. A famous patriotic song in this film was penned by Naeem Hashmi..
